Along with other speakers from Sustainable Energy & Economic Development (SEED) Programme sharing their work done in KP, MHRC, in collaboration with SEED Pakistan, hosted an important panel on Climate Resilient Infrastructure in Pakistan.

There is a significant need for a paradigm shift in how public projects are planned and developed, emphasizing the shift towards planning based on climate predictive projections rather than past trends. Predictive models generate evidence for policymaking, leading to more informed decisions that will aid in sustainable and resilient development, safeguard communities, and ensure sustainable development in regions facing severe climate risks.
By bringing together an interdisciplinary panel of experts and academics, the discussion was able to draw on the use of scientific and engineering tools to show the possibilities for climate resilience in Pakistan and also an economics lens that used households as a starting point to assess energy consumption and carbon emissions.
